Retrive Xpath for given text value from XML file.

[ehasas]

Hello,
I am trying to retrieve Xpath from the XML file for a given node value. I am doing this in VB and using "Microsoft XML, v4.0" library for XML parsing.

How to find xpath from the xml data if we have a text value of node in VB?
Also how can we find the Root Node of any XML data in VB?

Please revet.
Thanks in anticipation

To be honest, I don't remember which functions Microsoft XML v 4.0 uses.

Pseudocode might go something like:
Dim text = "text I'm searching for";
Dim target = document.Select SingleNode("//*[text()="+text+"]");

Dim xpath = target.Name();
while (target.Parent != NULL){
target = target.Parent;
xpath = target.Name() + "/" + xpath;
}
